When the bit is set it means ...
West the antenna is at the west limit.
East the antenna is at the east limit.
CCW the polarotor is at the ccw limit.
CW the polarotor is at the cw limit.

0 0 ... the polarotor drive signal is inactive.
0 1 ... the polarotor is being jogged clockwise.
1 0 ... the polarotor is being jogged counter
clockwise.
1 1 ... the polarotor is moving to an established
position
byte 18 : Sat_name display status - binary data - the
value of the internal
sat$name$display$status$code variable, which
indicates the present status of the
satellite name display field. In REMOTE or
MANUAL mode, if the antenna's present
azimuth position matches the position of a
satellite in the controllers’ non-volatile
memory, the satellite's name will be
displayed in upper case letters. If the
present azimuth position is close to the
position of a satellite in non-volatile
memory, the satellite name will be displayed
